Frozen Fisticuffs Fight Of The Night – Godard vs. Carkner – 12/26/10

With a full slate of games on the NHL’s Boxing Day schedule, there was certainly no shortage of fights taking place last night. That gave use plenty of bouts to choose from for our “Frozen Fisticuffs Fight of the Night” for Sunday, December 26, and after some debating we were finally able to agree on who was worthy of such honors.

So without further ado, we take you to Ottawa, where the Sens’ Matt Carkner was busy delivering his Christmas gift to the Penguins’ Eric Godard. But in addition to being one day late, this gift also appeared to be quite painful. Something tells me that next year Godard will be happy with just a simple Christmas card from Carkner, rather than a stiff right hand to the face.
